Comment on YSK: there's a browser extension called "SingleFile", which allows you to save a page into a single HTML file.

This doesn’t answer my question. There were two examples given in the OP, YouTube and Mastodon (which I don’t use).

Research, engineering, and cooking are all things I do and I can’t think of a case where I’d want to save all the Javascript on a web page. Usually saving a media file, or a pdf, or copy/ pasting text, or at most a screenshot is perfectly fine.

What do you end up using this for?

Probably youtube is just a bad example in this case. But javascript heavy pages were regular SaveAs doesn’t really work definitely exist, and the value is in preserving those websites information and formatting

    I’d imagine some sites with computations and modeling that are more niche. Software cost models, financial planning sites, statistics calculators and the like would be good candidates I would think.
